Vegans are a small but growing group, with numbers tripling in the last three years. But even more people are increasing their ratio of plant-only foods and meat consumption continues to decline. So here is a vegan recipe which can also be made with a gluten free flour mix.
The blueberry buckle is very similar to a blueberry crumble but while it bakes, the batter rises, but the berries and crumble weigh it down, causing the crumble to have a buckled appearance.
Ingredients:
For the crumble:
70g light brown sugar
60g plain flour
55g vegan butter (cold)
½ tsp ground cinnamon
pinch of salt
For the cake:
200g blueberries
180g plain flour
175ml almond milk (any non-dairy milk)
140g sugar
80ml vegetable oil
2 tsp vanilla essence
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp baking powder
zest of 1 lemon
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
pinch of salt
Method:
Preheat oven to 180⁰C. Prepare a 9” x 9” baking tray by greasing and lining with parchment paper.
Start by making the crumble. Cut the cold butter into small pieces. Mix the flour, sugar, salt and cinnamon in a bowl. Add the butter and use your fingers to mix the butter into the dry ingredients until you have a crumble like consistency. Place this in the fridge.
For the cake, place the flour, sugar, baking powder, bicarb of soda, salt and lemon zest in a bowl and mix together. In another bowl whisk the milk and vinegar, then stir in the oil and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until everything is just combined, (don’t over mix).
Pour this into the prepared tray, then scatter the blueberries. Finally sprinkle the crumble over the top. Place in the oven for appx 45 mins. The cake will go golden on top and the crumble will brown.
Take out the oven and leave in the tray to cool.
Enjoy.

The cause of endless arguments over hundreds of years. Cream or jam first? In Cornwall the jam goes on first. Apparently this is how the Queen prefers it. The Devonshire method is for the cream first as shown in the image above, but I guess you could always turn it over to

Our kids often ask for a cake or biscuit etc, but I’m very conscious of not letting them have too much sugar. Would you believe they still willingly hand their party bags in to me so I can decide which sweets they can have, rationed over as long as I can get away with! So...
